According to https://joinmastodon.org/about :

Mastodon gGmbH is a non-profit from Germany that develops the Mastodon software.

[…]

Mastodon, Inc. is a non-profit entity in the United States that supports the growth and operational capabilities of Mastodon, including being able to receive tax-deductible U.S. donations and in-kind support.

Doesn’t seem like it was a move, just a different entity. Seems like there’s a bit more history to this if you want to look it up, for example the German GmbH lost its nonprofit status in 2024, strangely.

1000℅

Surely you mean 1000‰ (1000 per mille), not care of. How did you type that, anyway?!

fucking finally!

Thank you, I have now been unwooshed

… four?

I use both btw

Woah. Sir, this is trademark infringement. You’re only allowed to use that phrase with Arch.

Yup, Cinnamon is slow on Wayland support, but they’re getting there. Eventually.

Police, this guy right here.

I think (not 100% sure) that UEFI is a replacement for BIOS. All modern computers use UEFI.

People still colloquially call it “BIOS” because it serves a similar purpose, but there is a technical difference.

Even your title isn’t the true beginning. Before the terminal, there was just a printer. Teletype, was it?

I followed a number of guides to try to get it to work. Including doing that. No dice.

I still think it’s probably user error on my part, but I’m still shocked there was no command to effectively “force run an unattended upgrade now” to test that it works correctly.

The OP did it in the wrong order. First do update to refresh, then do upgrade to install.

There are even better ways built into the shell, but I can never remember any of them. I also never thought of history|grep, I think I might actually remember that one. Thanks!

It’s through Update Manager (mintupdate) for me, but I definitely feel like the happy guy looking out at the nice view.

I never got unattended-upgrades to work for me on the machine I tried it on. Best I could tell, it just didn’t do anything. It was frustrating.

But many years back I set up my raspberry pi with a cron job that was effectively (if not literally) apt update && apt full-upgrade && reboot and that seemed to be working just fine.

Among many other reasons, this is one more why I always prefer to use a GUI than a terminal shell. The default delete operation is just sends files to trash, and that’s easily undoable. I think you can even press Ctrl+Z to do so (can’t check atm).

I don’t even know how to do that from commandline.

(one online search later…)

There’s a package for that but best I can tell there’s no universal way.

What the hell is wrong with all of you? Command names obviously use - and not _

Right. I guess I consider that a relatively niche usecase. But on second thought I suppose it’s not that niche once you include hobbyist musicians and that kind of crowd.

I wanted to make the analogy of every tech YouTuber reviewing a laptop or non-high-end PC saying “you’re not going to be rendering long videos on this thing” as if that’s a relatable use case. No, YouTuber, that’s not something most people do on their computers! Most people probably never do it in their life, or only a handful of times ever.

But as I said upon more thought I realize that’s not the case with midi.

Maybe I’m missing something obvious but how often is midi used in modern days?

@possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip okay, I won’t be vague. I’m from Israel. Not hiding it, you can find out pretty easily from my comment history.

And in case you wondered, yes, I find the genocide in Gaza abhorrent and unacceptable. This is not the place to talk about this though so let’s leave it at that.
